In depth
Verdict
Smoothie looks well handicapped in this and, if running to the level of his win at Windsor, has to have a good chance. Shaman is well treated at best and Tight Squeeze comes here in good form. Reminiscent has potential but has not so far lived up to expectations. Beckon is back on a winning mark and goes well on the surface. Another open event.
